So, am I the only one that knows about Star Control because of the Genesis? Despite the fact that it was WAY too deep for me to get a decent grasp of, I loved the shit out of it. Seeking out random planets to farm resources from was the shit. The huge instruction book with detailed information about everything including various alien races you could encounter really made you feel like you were part of a living galaxy. There was some great stuff there. Hope they capture the magic with the new one.

Do not *sing* to Orz about *sweepers*. That will make them *frumple* and then there will be *dancing*
Who are sweepers? That some Brit slang for *Campers*? I'll make many fucking bubbles you keep using non-Orz words.

Not sure what the odds of being founder accepted at this point were, but clearly Orz-speak was acceptable since I'm in (beta is paygated - I'll absolutely be doing it, but its scheduled to be next winter so I'll likely wait)

I got in too. Maybe they are just accepting everyone? Technically, you don't get in unless you pay the fee hehe.

Thread necro, I know. I played the hell out of the genesis version. It launched today, currently watching live stream. It looks very interesting.

Just watched about 2 hours of streaming and it looks legit captures the feel humor of SC2 really well and gameplay look/feel seems spot on.

Is the lawsuit still going on?
I think it is complete. There are races and names they can't use in the new game such as the ur-quon. So they are basically going as a reboot and so far it seems to hit the feel really well.

It is pretty fun, I've just played about two-maybe three, hours of it. Reminds me of ME1, but it's a lot slower. At least that's what I've found so far.

It's great so far, but yea, could use greater base speed for the main ship - I would love it 100x more with a speedhack to double how fast space travel is.

I played and enjoyed starcontrol 3 as well star control origins at least in the hour or so I have played and couple hours I have watched does seem to hit the feel/pacing of SC2 pretty dead on.
